After listening to this, the intermediary said seriously: "Jose, I have read the inspection plan you formulated before, including Italy, England, Spain and Germany, and it will take a long time, so when will the inspection of domestic personnel be carried out?" ”

"Don't worry, I didn't bring all the personnel with me on this expedition, I will ask Torica to do some investigations, and when we come back, we will start a detailed investigation, Mr. Herode, I can understand your concerns, but you have to believe that my team is all professionals and very good, I think, our cooperation is also based on this, I hope you can believe us"

These are two well-known figures in football, especially in South American football, one is the president of the Colombian Football Federation, Hirod, and the other is the Argentine Jose Coleman, as early as 2004 when José Coleman was the head coach of the Argentine national team, they met and have maintained a good relationship, after Argentina lost in the 2006 World Cup, although the Argentine fans still love him more than hate, but José Coleman took all the responsibility on his shoulders and resigned, In 2007, Colombia did not get a ticket to the 2010 World Cup finals, and at the same time, Herod began to contact José and sent an invitation, and in May 2008, José. Coleman officially accepted the invitation to become the head coach of the Colombian national team, the goal is to prepare for the 2014 World Cup qualifiers and finals, the Colombian national team since 1998 to attend the finals and the first round of the group stage was eliminated, 2 consecutive World Cups have not qualified, and after the new millennium, the older generation of players have retired one after another, the national team's record has fallen all the way, Hirod came to power at this time, naturally need to be on the national team's entire development direction and medium and long-term goals, The development of players gives answers to these key questions, and Jose. Coleman was the most crucial step in his mind. Jose. Within a month of Coleman's tenure, the Colombian Football Association rarely publicly released the 2008~2018 football development master plan, from the training of young athletes, the adjustment of the league mechanism, the adjustment of the relationship between the Football Association and the club, the arrangement of the national team invitational tournament, and even the goal setting of the Copa America and the World Cup. As the head coach of the national team, Coleman naturally took on the task of selecting members of the national team, and this inspection of overseas players has also been planned by the coaching team for a long time.

"Mr. José, your flight is about to take off, please follow me through the VIP lane," a beautiful flight attendant said in standard Spanish, as she came behind the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man stood up, and the others followed suit, and after a courtesy hug between Herod and José, he said, "I wish you all a smooth journey"

"Thank you," José Coleman responded.

Jose Coleman's team included physical coaches Sario and Ulda and team doctor Viva, while assistant coach Tocari remained in the country, accompanied by a staff member named Tang appointed by the Football Association and a translator who is fluent in multiple Chinese. According to the inspection plan formulated by the coaching staff, their first stop was Milan, Italy, then England, Germany, and finally flew back to Colombia from West Extraction, because Avianca does not have a direct flight from Milan in China, so it needs to fly to Barcelona first to transfer to Milan. It was a long journey, flying at least 12 hours from Bogotá to Barcelona, and the expedition included 45 Colombian players, and Tang had already compiled and brought the details of those 45 players, so most of the time, Tang presented the information of each player, the coaching staff listened to it, Jose Coleman occasionally wrote something in his notebook, and after a few hours, the first players who played in the Italian league were finally introduced.

Jose Coleman signaled Tang to stop for a while, and then classified the 10 players according to their importance, and emphasized the key points of the examination, and then shifted the topic to some light things, after all, the coaching staff are old friends for many years, and there are a lot of topics to talk about, and when they are tired of chatting, they will rest, the position of the first class cabin is quite loose, and the seat cushions are also soft materials, which relieves the fatigue of passengers to the greatest extent, and in the sixth hour after the plane takes off, the first class cabin becomes quite quiet, José Coleman was lost in thought, Urta and Yivia were napping, and the rest of the group was silent, listening to music or reading magazines.
